Lovely to see Indian tennis player, Sania Mirza, all glammed up and gorgeous! Bouffant updo is an easy style for those with thick or coarse hair. They’re easier to backcomb for that needed height. It’s a bit tricky to do this style for women with fine hair. Products such as volumizing mousse and hairspray will, however, ease out the process.

Gong Li scored the perfect look by pairing a simple pulled back bun with a high neckline dress. Did you know that in Ancient China, hairstyles depict one’s marital status? A woman in a braided hairstyle means that she’s single. Women sporting buns are married and are referred to as “yisao”. A permed hairstyle means that the woman is about to get married. That’s a cool way to categorize, don’t you think?
